Chapter 35: The Return to the City
Over Guangyuan, through the Sword Pavilion, and then through Zitong without entering the city, over Fucheng, is about to arrive at the city, the 400-kilometer journey took about 6 days to complete this time, shortened by two days than the last rescue of Pujiaguan, and this time the number of people is more than twice as much as a time, all of this is indispensable to General Ma Chao's command along the way, every time I think of this, Shiyuan is happy from the bottom of my heart, it is really a great blessing to get a colleague like General Ma Chao. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
However, in the past two days, Shi Yuan has gradually noticed the fatigue of the soldiers, and he can't hurry up and down anymore, so it's useless to rush to the lord, Shi Yuan thought in his heart, but he is about to go to Ruocheng, after arriving in Ruocheng, let the soldiers have a good rest! Shi Yuan thought in his heart.
At this time, a white horse jogged from the front, in a mountainous place like Xichuan, the horse was also difficult to gallop, only to see a person riding on the horse, holding a spear, wearing silver-white armor, looking at its riding posture was very heroic, unconsciously Shiyuan took a few more looks. After seeing this horse to Shi Yuan's side, he stopped under the control of the person riding on the horse, Shi Yuan vaguely heard the person on the horse at this time seem to whisper a womanizer, but because the voice was very small, Shi Yuan was not completely sure, and there was no evidence that the person on the horse was talking about himself.
"Hey, my eldest brother asked me to come over and ask you, he said that he will be in Ruocheng in front, do you need the soldiers to enter Ruocheng to rest." The person on the horse said that this person was none other than Ma Chao's sister Ma Yunlu. On the way out of Pujia Pass, I don't know why, Ma Yunlu seems to have been looking for trouble with Shi Yuan, every time he thinks of this Shi Yuan, he feels a little headache, if he is allowed to deal with thousands of enemies, it will be much easier for Shi Yuan than to deal with this woman, and in the end Shi Yuan really has no choice, so he used the word "hide", I can't afford to provoke you, I can't hide from you, Shi Yuan thought in his heart. So along the way, Shi Yuan basically avoided Ma Yunlu from a distance, and he would never dare to let Shi Yuan take the initiative to meet him.
After hearing Ma Yunlu finish speaking, Shi Yuan subconsciously dodged back, but Shi Yuan then thought of something. He is a big man, and he is also the military advisor of the lord, and his status is much higher than Ma Yunlu, why are he so afraid of her, thinking of this, Shi Yuan straightened his waist again, so that others could see his momentum, and then Shi Yuan said:
"Oh. That's it! You see that our soldiers are very tired now, so it is necessary to take a rest in Luocheng......" Shi Yuan was about to continue, but at this time, Ma Yunlu suddenly interjected
"I knew you would say that, I had already told my eldest brother about this just now, and my eldest brother still had to ask me to ask you, which is really a superfluous move. But now it seems that you are not as good as people talk about, I think that's it! Ma Yunlu said with a proud look.
When Shi Yuan heard Ma Yunlu say this, he immediately became angry, and wanted to say something more, but he didn't expect Ma Yunlu to turn his horse's head at this time and go forward with a smoke. Seeing this scene at this time, Shi Yuan sat on the horse in a daze, and the hand that had just been raised didn't know where to put it at this time, and the words he wanted to say were so stubbornly held in his mouth, not to mention how embarrassing it was.
"Hey! It's really sad," Shi Yuan thought in his heart when he had offended this little ancestor.
Castle!
Although after a period of fighting, the number of residents and commerce in the city have declined, but after Liu Bei occupied the city, he successively promulgated many measures to let the people recuperate, and at the same time took out a part of the funds for the development of commerce in the city, so the city recovered in a short period of time, and after this period of development, it has faintly exceeded the prosperity of the city before Liu Bei came.
In order to be able to take Chengdu as soon as possible, Liu Bei dispatched almost all the troops in the city, leaving only a few hundred people to defend the city. But think about it, now Liu Bei's army has occupied Zitong, Guangyuan, Jiange, Fucheng, etc. north of Luocheng, as well as Baidi, Jiangzhou, Jiangyang and other places east of Chengdu, almost half of Xichuan has been subordinated to Liu Bei, and now it is useless to leave too many troops in Luocheng.
Just when it was about to get dark, Shi Yuan's troops came to the city, and after a short period of inquiry, the defenders inside the city opened the city gate and let the troops outside the city enter the city. After several days of marching, everyone felt very tired, so after a few words of greetings, everyone went to their resting place and hurried to rest.
Returning to Ruocheng again, Shi Yuan had a feeling in his heart at this time, and he couldn't say what it was like, but he was sure that this was completely different from the feeling of the first time he went to Ruocheng, after all, last time he was originally a dying person who somehow traveled to Ruocheng, and this time he came almost as a winner.
From the moment he first entered the city, Shi Yuan felt that the two children were suddenly much quieter, and they were leaning on their side tightly, Shi Yuan looked at the two children, and saw that the expressions of the two children were a little sad. But it's right to think about it, after all, the biological parents of these two children died in this city, so let's see things and think about people!
"Light, light, go, go to our house." Shi Yuan said to the two children.
The two children looked up at Shi Yuan, a smile appeared on the corner of their mouths, and then the two of them took a Shi Yuan's hand and returned to their home, that is, the big courtyard that the lord gave Shi Yuan after the occupation of the city at that time.
After arriving at his own home, everything is still the same as when he left, when he left the city, Shi Yuan left a few servants to clean the yard, so when Shi Yuan came this time, the things in the yard were clean, and it was good to be able to relax and rest after getting home after being tired for a few days! And after arriving at their own home, the two children were not so sad, and trotted all the way into the house where they lived at the beginning.
